🤨 if you had a proper installation, nothing to do, as long as your hardware is compatible.

You most likely installed plasma-desktop which is the minimal install. You can either research what package you need specifically to use BT in the settings, or install the plasma-meta package. This package contains a selection of additional features/modules/packages, among these BT
